'lpplicatiou filcai Eecembcr Zinc-ago, in the county of Cook and Stateof llhnois hove inveutc certain new and use-- ful Improvements inSkin-Shaving Illuchines,-of which the following is u specificaiion.

This invention irelstes to machines for removing the flesh from skins orhides. and mono particularly to the feed roller' which curries the shinsor hides to the shaving knife. Such feed rollers, when in use, be comemore or less sticky so that the skins or hides adhere thereto ami areapt to be curried entirely around the roller, and it is to overcome thisobjection that the present invention has been (lQ'i/lSlKl,

"no invention comprises a novel and improved device for applying alubricant to the surface of the roller, whereby *the shins QR hideseffectually prevented from sticking thereon. A scraper is also providedwhich positively separates "the skins and hizles'froni the roller ifthey should happen to slick even after the roller is lubricated.

in order that the invention may be better understood, reference is landto the accompanying dinning in which Figure l is an end View of the feedrolle showing the invention applied thereto. Fig. 2 is u perspectiveview of the device removed femn the roilci:

and is in contact with the surface of the oller. The pan contains alubricant which is absorbed by the swab and applied thereby to thesurface of the roller, the swab lightly touching the vlatter. The pan iselongated and extends parallel to the roller, and the swab extendsthroughout vthe entire length or the latter-so that the lubricant isapplied to all parts of the roller surface. One .end of the pan 10 has alateral extension 12 through in the corners.

supporting the pan 10: To the pan are secured brackets having upstandingportions tions of the bracket arms 8, the fastening bolts 1? passingthrough the latter and through the slots 16 and being provided withsecuring nuts 18. The slots 16 permit vertical adjustment of the pan andthus euoble the latter to be adjusted relative to. the

sition with respect to the-roller.

The lubricant applied to the roller 5 prevenls the skins or hides fromsficking thereon, end if the lubricant should become scant and fail toprevent sticking of the skins or hides, they will be separated from theroller by the blade 9. I

The device herein described is simple in construction, efiicicnt inoperatioru and it can be easily applied to the roller, no change in themounting thereof being necessary.

By providing. the pan with the extension 12 ancl leavin a portion of thesame open the pan is rcn cred readily accessible for the purpose offilling the pan, and this can be done without removing the swab.

I claim:

1. The combination with a feed-roller, of a longitudinal lubricant panextending arallel thereto and containing a swab WIlCh is in contact withthe surface of the roller,

PI'OVldQCl witluvertical slots 16. These brackets are bolted to. theupstanding p01 roller 5 to bring the swab 11 in proper powhich islocated adjacent tothe correspondf The following means arev procided forI a longitudinallubricant pan extending para longitudinal lubricant panextending parsaid pan having a lateral extension at one 1 end spacedfrom the vorresponding end of the roller'and provided with a filleropening.

2. The combination with a feed roller, of

allel thereto and eontaininga swab which is in contact with the surfaceof the roller. a sup ort for the pan, slotted bracket arms exten ingfrom the pan, and fiastening means passing through the support and theslots of the bracket arm.

The combination with a -feed roller, of a longitudinal lubricant panextending arallel thereto and containing a svab wiiich is in contactwith the surface of the roller, anda longitudinal scraper bladeextending parallel to the roller in close proximity thereto above theswab.

In testimony whereof l. aliix my signature 1r}. presence of twowitnesses.
